Recently, there has been an upsurge of deployment of higher capacities because of the deployment of 10G and 40G optical transmission networks. Similarly, many leading vendors such as Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei announced they are taking a step further in the future by innovating and conducting trials for capacities as large as 400G and 10 petabits per second transmission. Though currently the capacities are much larger than required, they are still considered as a future investment considering the huge expansion in data traffic.

Analysts forecast the Global Passive Optical Network Equipment market will grow at a CAGR of 3.56 percent over the period 2013-2018. According to the report, the increasing growth of PON equipment in the APAC region is the major growth driver. The mass adoption of electronic gadgets and the data traffic generated by customers are driving the end-users in the country to switch from a wireless to a wired optical medium.

The Global Passive Optical Network Equipment Market 2014-2018, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas and the EMEA and APAC regions; it also covers the Global Passive Optical Network Equipment market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years.
